Workers who operate the drilling machines must stay awake. The fight is tortuous, against the machine and against themselves. Meanwhile, coal miners are busy filling trucks with coals. Wearing a coal-dust mask, they become ghostlike creatures. An endless line of trucks will transport all the coals and iron ores to the iron works.

- DirectorXin XuThe film opens on the morning of December 8th 2007, in Karamay's Xiaoxihu cemetery. Daybreak casts a cold grey light over faraway mountains and the Gobi sands. As the camera moves from grave to grave, it zeroes in on the photographs encased in glass on every tombstone. All are of children. Exactly 13 years ago, Karamay's Friendship Hall was the site of a horrible tragedy: nearly 800 grade and middle-school students and their teachers, hand-picked to entertain a delegation of education officials, were in the midst of a performance when a fire broke out in the hall. The students were instructed to remain in their seats so that the visiting executives could exit first. By the time the fire had been contained, 323 people had perished, 288 of them children between the ages of 6 and 14. All of the officials survived. After the tragedy, the story was heavily censored in the Chinese state media. To this day, the families of Karamay have not been allowed to publicly mourn their children.

- DirectorZanbo ZhangAs a little-known place, Suining County, Hunan, lies directly in the path of falling debris from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center-- one of the three Satellite Launch centers in China. Since 1990, it has been visited many times by those dangerous 'aliens' from the sky. The wreckage have smashed into the tranquil lives of the 160,000 impoverished inhabitants in the landing area, damaged their farmlands and houses, and killed their livestock and crops. One of the most tragic accidents happened on 30 May 1998, when a 16-year-old girl in her second year of middle school was killed by the debris of a rocket that landed after the launch of a communication satellite called ChinaStar-1 from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center. This tragedy remained unknown for many years because of media blackout by Chinese authorities, who have always claimed that 'the rocket debris have never caused any casualties'. 2008 is the 'Olympic Year' as well as the 'Space Year' for China. While the people of Suining eagerly awaited the Olympic Games like their fellow countrymen and became proud of the development of their nation especially in space exploration, they had to endure the fate of rocket wreckage falling on their heads. The director (also the cinematographer) Zanbo Zhang took his camera deep into rocket wreckage landing area in Suining County, capturing the vivid and rich memories and reactions of the local people to falling debris, as well as their poor and difficult daily lives on their homeland-this is the heart-wrenching reality behind the 'rise of a great nation'.
